Superbowl Sunday Cardiff Freakshow.

Sombrero boy and plane.

Surfing dog, sombrero boy, and 12 of his stand-up friends.

The Whalerider (with stand-up grom in background, of course).

Mrs. Finn has been wanting to get back in the water since the Finnster emerged about 4 months ago.  With the piddly surf happenings this week, we decided to toss the 'yak in at Cardiff Reef to give her some saltwater action.  Finn seemed to forget however, what a freakshow the reef can be sometimes, especially on a beautiful Superbowl Sunday.....

13 stand-up paddle surfers snaking all the waves. Check. 

Guy in goofy sombrero (on stand-up board), check. 

Longboarder with dog on nose......uh, yep.  

Dude on a big fatty outrigger, check.  

Team Finn in the 'yak, with 12 other kayaks in the kelp beds, check.

Low flying airplane buzzing the line-up, uh huh.

Tandem board team practicing, check check check.

Paddleboard spear fisherman, bing!

Several RV'ers watching the game...at the beach...inside. 

That's it. We're out of here. Ok not really. We did manage to scarf down a killer chicken wrap from Ki's, look at a dead mullet on the beach (the fish, not the hair style), and see tons of dolphins and a harbor seal.  But still...should have stayed at Beacons. Leucadia rules.  Cardiff is for carnies, but we still love it.

 

Mr. Finn and his organic pet rat.

Mrs. Finn, back on the water after far too long.
